[edit] G'day!

G'day there, Liu Bei, and welcome to Wikipedia! Good authors are always welcome on the project, and I hope you like the place and decide to stick around!

We've got a few pages you might find helpful, such as:

It's all best summed up here: write from a neutral point of view, play nice with others, and don't let the rules get you down.

If you have any questions or need any help, my talkpage is always open for business, or you can see Wikipedia:Newcomers help page. Here's a tip to start you off: if you type four tildes (~~~~) at the end of any messages you leave on talkpages (like this one) Wikipedia will automatically insert your name and the current date and time after your message. Cool, eh? Happy editing! fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 07:23, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Victory

Hello Liu Bei,
I note that your reversion of my work on the above has caused:

  • The reintroduction of more than one wikilink per entry, contrary to a well-established Manual of Style convention;
  • The loss of a new entry;
  • The reintroduction of more than one entry without any wikilink to the item being disambiguated (e.g. the Joseph Conrad novel, the definitions of victories);
  • The removal of subject headings intended to aid those seeking disambiguation;
  • The reintroduction of material more suited to the Wikitionary (definitions of types of victory) and Wikiquote (quotes about or involving the concept of victory).

Perhaps we might work together to resolve the current loss of the above?  Thanks, David Kernow 22:43, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

I've replied to your post on [Talk:Victory] regarding substantial revision to this disambiguation page. Liu Bei 23:26, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
(From Talk:Victory:) ...Just because no one's gotten around to making a page for the Joseph Conrad novel victory doesn't mean we should strike all knowledge of it from everywhere else

I think you might've missed how I handled this entry; I don't recall deleting it, but upgrading it to a redlink...

The definitions/uses of victory (pyrrhic victory and quote from Apocalypse now) is exactly the kind of broad-web I enjoy in Wikipedia and suits its primary purpose -- to inform.

Have posted my reponse back at Talk:Victory as others may be able to confirm and/or enlighten. Thanks for your reply, David 00:36, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bindi as laser dot from rife sight

You haven't given any citations and, upon thinking about it, I've decided that this is an ugly remark, suggesting that the bindi makes a good shooting target. Please don't restore the sentence. Zora 22:14, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your edit to Twinkie

Care to tell me what you had in mind with this edit? It looks like vandalism to me.--The ikiroid (talk·desk·Advise me) 03:04, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Holocaust protection

Just to let you know, adding or removing {{sprotected}} or {{protected}} on a page is only a means for an admin to notify users that a page is protected. This does not actually confer protection to the article The Holocaust. If you help need with page protection, please see Wikipedia:Requests for protection. Thanks!

[edit] Nonsense edits

You seem to be adding nonsense to articles, according to your talk page and this edit. Could you please explain why you made this edit, or is there something you need to talk about? Please feel free to respond here or on my talk page. --WillMak050389 21:39, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, I'm sorry to say, but Wikipedia is not for jokes. Have you checked out Uncyclopedia? --WillMak050389 21:44, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
I realize it may be a popular culture joke, but it is not relevant enough to be added to the article. If I had not deleted it, someone else would have. I'm just trying to help you with the inner workings of Wikipedia. Hopefully you understand. Also, if you could sign your comments on talk pages with four tildes (~~~~) it would help. Thank you. --WillMak050389 21:50, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Guinea-worm.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Guinea-worm.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Picard quotes

Since you obviously found a previous iteration of the article with the quotes -- could you please dig it up again and copy/paste the actual article text (i.e. what appears in the text editing field) rather than the "show differences" section? You wound up snagging hyphens and other markup that kinda jack up the layout -- take a gander at it, you'll see that it looks a little screwy. Many thanks. --EEMeltonIV 03:11, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Helepolis aom.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Helepolis aom.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 22:50, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Seymour.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Seymour.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.
